Natural products are the cornerstone of our group. Within the broad study of natural products chemistry there are three primary areas of inquiry; total synthesis, reaction development, and molecular pharmacology. Typical targets selected for total synthesis possess structures that, from a synthetic chemistry point of view, have atom connectively challenges. In addressing these challenges within specific targets, inspiration may be gained for new synthetic methods. Our goal is to develop new methods to compliment and improve upon existing reactions. Accordingly, emphasis is placed on the development of reactions that are generally applicable to synthesis, as it is most broadly defined. The second area of focus and inquiry in our group is the study of natural products that are biologically relevant in selected fields of biology and medicine. Through interdisciplinary collaborations, we will study optimization of the biological performance and/or investigation into the mechanism action of the natural products prepared in our laboratory. Information gained through these collaborations will determine the future direction of the projects undertaken.=====================================================================================

that's nice and good for him, but here's a few more pictures. yummy. just wow. hotness. i wish i were a natural products chemist.

1. Her work in C-H activation, which is groundbreaking AND useful, especially with respect to C-N bond formation. 2. Two words: Belt. buckle. 3. Her incredibly dynamic speaking style. If needed, I can provide more.

Science Diva: What a great site you've got there. We're just starting to launch a Sexy Scientists and Engineers photo gallery and would love suggestions for top hotties. Thanks for considering.Darlene Cavalierwww.sciencecheerleader.com

Apart from this post, I have gone through almost all of your posts these are really very advantageous and unique, keep it up please!

Well, my name is Eva, I am enjoying my motherhood spending wonderful times with my baby. Whenever I get time I used to surf internet because I also run a dating website, according to my knowledge for the right person, online dating can be a very effective alternative to traditional dating. Not only does it provide the convenience of getting to know someone in front of your computer, but it also will help ensure that you meet someone who shares similar interests. It's important to keep in mind that there are a number of different things that one can do to increase the chances of successful dating in the online world.
